I've had the intention to try the same thing and ask the same question. 
Meanwhile I was able to find 
http://www.coreboot.org/AMD_Geode_Porting_Guide which links to 
http://review.coreboot.org/gitweb?p=blobs.git;a=tree;f=cpu/amd/geode_lx 
where there is 'a' blob [0] that I haven't been able to try yet.

Do keep us posted of your progress!
